C50 (1/2)
Xue Chenrui had always known that this son of his had no interest in the Xue Clan's assets even though he had heard Xue Minghuang's story with his own ears. What do you want? ”
”If you want sufficient funds, of course you can pay me with Snow League. Don't worry, I won't ask for too much.” Xue Minghuang put down the porridge in his hands, and wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin. For you guys, this is very simple and very convenient. ”
”Why?” Xue Chenrui was still puzzled. Could it be that this son of his would hate him so much? Even if he knew the answer, he still didn't want to believe it.
”I want to go out on my own. I don't need your Snow League, so I won't be attached to the Xue Family. I recognize you as my parents, and I hope you can use the most honorable method to separate me from this family. This is your only choice right now, what do you think? There's no need for me to say more. ”
Ever since he brought Xue Minghuang back from China, he had started to bear a lot of pressure. This was a very difficult decision, and if he were to continue keeping Xue Minghuang here, and even send the Snow League to him, Krose would not agree to it. This was indeed the best choice.
”Have you thought it over?”
”The point is that you need to think it through. I don't think there's anything wrong with my body. Just give me the answer as soon as possible. ” What he meant was that he didn't want to stay here for even a second longer.
Xue Chenrui looked at him. There were too many emotions in his heart, mixed together, like a ball of wool that could not be unraveled. The more he tried to solve it, the more chaotic it became. Are you still blaming me for what happened back then? ”
Xue Minghuang tilted his head and did not say anything, there was really nothing much to say.
”I know.” Xue Chenrui stood up, ”The funds will be prepared for you, what else do you want to take away?”
”As long as Jing Feng follows me.”
”Alright. What about this girl? ”
”She is free, not yours nor mine. Stop making things difficult for her, everything that happened that year is already over, and your son wasn't destroyed by her in the end. ”
Xue Chenrui nodded his head, then closed the door and came out. Standing outside the door, Sophie just happened to hear her last words, and looked down, causing Xue Chenrui to be extremely annoyed, but he still waved her off and followed.
”Although I don't like you, I have already interacted with you. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have any extra experience. I only have one sentence, follow Xue Minghuang. ”
These words were like a sharp knife, every single word was stabbed into Sophie's heart. What kind of terrifying father was this? However, he was still unable to say no to such a person.
Xue Minghuang immediately pushed the door open, and pulled Sophie up. He turned and looked at Xue Chenrui, without a hint of emotion in his eyes, that unfamiliarity caused Xue Chenrui to feel a chill in his heart, ”All these years have passed, your methods of threatening others have yet to improve.”
Xue Minghuang pulled Sophie out of the study room. Sophie stared at his fingers that were clearly defined, and felt that it was really good. Xue Minghuang still released her hand and looked at her. Even after so many years, there wasn't the slightest bit of change, and she still looked as submissive as ever.
Back then, he was most afraid that she would look at him in such a manner. But now, he didn't even feel anything when he looked at her. Indeed, even if a heartless person forgot about it in the end, there was no sign.
Xue Minghuang was relieved. He would also forget about Xia Ying like this. Simple.
”Snow, are you going back to China?” Sophie looked at Xue Minghuang, this was the place that he had never had the courage to go back to all these years, he had too many memories and also had too many helplessness.
”Right, so we'll split up here.”
”I don't have a family anymore. I don't know where else I can go. Can I go back to China with you? ” Those three words came out of his mouth with great difficulty. He was truly afraid that Xue Minghuang would refuse.
Xue Minghuang still couldn't bear to see Sophie's current appearance. Although it couldn't be said that he was the one who caused it, it was definitely related to him. He would never be able to make it up to her after six years of hard work. Now that he had brought her back, there was nothing wrong with it.
”He's really selfish, even he can't help but curse himself in his heart.” But I hope you understand that we are not going back in time. ” If the cruel words were made clear, the two of them would be delighted.
Sophie looked at Xue Minghuang, trying to see a bit of him in his eyes, or even a bit of him being reluctant to leave, but, he didn't. However, she still nodded willingly. ”I understand.”
The day that Xue Minghuang brought Jing Feng and Sophie back to China, Odile came to the airport to send them off, ”Am I unable to see you?”
Xue Minghuang looked at his smiling face, as if he was a truly contradictory man. He was clearly so strong, but he actually had such a pure smile, if he could ignore the sadness and vicissitudes of life in the depths of his eyes, then he would truly be a pure man. However, it couldn't be that strong.
”There will always be opportunities in the future. Take good care of yourself.”
With these words, Odile's eyes reddened. Xue Minghuang stepped forward and gave her a hug, ”It's not that far away. Don't worry, I will definitely come when you get married, because you're mine —”
Odile stopped him from uttering those two words. Sometimes, it was really easy to make oneself happy by lying to others. ”Don't say it, please.” Xue Minghuang still smiled at her. What else could she say?
